[hider=Band of Hope]The Band of Hope is ruled by [url=https://i.imgur.com/l6tcn5t.jpg]Gisla the Dragon[/url], though she has advisors to help with decision making. I imagine them being in the thousands, incorporating all races into their ranks. Based out of the Great Plains and typically an assortment of tents, horses, and campfires. 

[list]
[*]Established during [i][b]The First Age[/b][/i]. [just to give plenty of others a chance to insert themselves into the history of the band] 
[*]Was unofficially involved in the war. [split-faction of the band participated in war against The Leader's wishes]
[*]Split up during the war with one side set on 'exploration' [i.e. being a neutral party] and the other on aiding the Kingdom [actively participating in the battle in support of Kheris/ none of which was high-up in the band].
[*] The [i][b]4[/b][/i] veteran members [maybe we can come up with some catchy title] of the Band of Hope often accept apprentices or 'Heirs' to teach personally. High-honor and a quick way to earn power and sway. The Leader does [i][b]not[/b][/i] do this.
[*] Gisla the Dragon is fairly new to the Leader position [maybe a year in] but has taken the reigns nicely. She's stronger than the last and has a bottomless ambition. She is renowned for taming and riding a Tyrant Wyvern into serious battles. She's named him [url=https://i.imgur.com/7bSOlsx.jpg]Lavass[/url] [/list]

So I guess maybe [i][b]Wyverns[/b][/i] are a thing. I don't know the specifics about Wyverns but give me a few days and I can get some information on them.[/hider]

[color=#2eb8b8][b]Name:[/b][/color] Ozymandias "Oz" | The Grim Jester
[color=#2eb8b8][b]Age:[/b][/color] 23
[color=#2eb8b8][b]Gender:[/b][/color] Male

[color=#2eb8b8][b]Faction/Allegiance:[/b][/color] None
[color=#2eb8b8][b]Relic Description:[/b][/color] The Mask he wears allows for the creation of something out of nothing. The placement of said creation cannot interfere with another [i][b]living[/b][/i] structure of matter or be [i][b]living[/b][/i] itself. A structure cannot be created without a clear, stable image and understanding of the desired object. No object created can supersede the [i][b]will[/b][/i] or [i][b]ambition[/b][/i] of the Relic wielder. Structures created by the Mask dematerializes within 24 hours of creation unless a clear dematerialization time is set during creation. Various sizes and functions can cause differing effects. Exceptionally strong structures, in exchange for unnatural strength, must be used alone. Others will require the Relic wielder to make a pact or sacrifice with the Mask. To make a pact with the Mask or to commit to a sacrifice to create a stronger structure is the most dangerous of undertakings. The unique structures created by the Mask is directly tied to Ozymandias' spirituality and strength of will. 

[color=#2eb8b8][b]Flaws:[/b][/color] Ozymandias' has a troubled psyche. He is mostly self-serving in all his endeavors whether they be acts of kindness or willful arguments to defend his opinion. That being said, Ozymandias does carry himself with a near permeant air of detachment, a severe degree of fickleness and indifference came with that territory as well. A lack of friends, family, and overall affection turned into a social impairment, that in turn made him quite the actor; which is to say that Ozymandias is not all that trustworthy and responsible, lest it benefits him.  

[color=#2eb8b8][b]Skills:[/b][/color] Most important is probably his survival skills. Capable of hunting and sheltering himself against the elements. He's a practiced user of spears, daggers, bows, and a rather unusual master of the sword. He learned this for various users working out the old guildhall he worked at. This hodgepodge mixture of mentors has his form vary from weapon to weapon, adding to his already vacillating combat style. Like his namesake, he works mostly on misdirection and tricks, though it appears all of this sits on a foundation of finesse and dexterity. Outside of that, he is somewhat of a people-reader. Establishing universal expressions with certain emotions. His voice is also rather flexible, allowing for him to effortlessly raise his pitch and tone to match a certain other persona of his.

[color=#2eb8b8][b]Biography:[/b][/color] Ozymandias has a checkered and complex past and for the sake of brevity we shall condense it into something digestible. His childhood was wrought with hunger, his parents--selfish creatures abandoned his sister and himself during a particularly terrible winter. They survived that winter through grit and luck. The two children would go on to find work in The Great Plains. As the servants of a lesser guildhall, the two had found shelter and honest work. The next summer Ozymandias' sister would vanish instead of returning to their cot. 

Internalizing his abandonment, Ozymandias worked steadily in this Guildhall until the age of 20. Between this he picked up tricks and skills from the various warriors, both old and new that regularly sought employment. Over the years he had begun to notice the Guildmaster's lecherous eyes on the little girls that accompanied the warriors or merchants and a suspicion had sprouted from once-innocent memories of bruises and tears from his elder sister. Once he was sure of the Guildmaster's guilt, rage and darkness was born inside him. A few months later, the Guildmaster ended up dead and the Guildhall was razed to the ground.

Throughout the lonely years, Ozymandias realized a few things about himself. First was that he enjoyed killing; it soothed an ache inside of himself. It gave life to the Grim Jester. The second thing he understood was that anonymity was a gift. It hid, protected, and allowed for one to be themselves; unfiltered and unabashed. No one could judge what they did not truly see. Did not truly know. It was not until a bent-back peddler offered him The Mask did Ozymandias find his purpose. His sovereignty. To see the chaos unshackled in the hearts of those most grounded, most calm. To see fear breed into terror on the brows of those who feel the most secure.      

[color=#2eb8b8][b]Personality/motivation:[/b][/color] Ozymandias is seemingly dual natured, fooling even himself at times. While normally meandering around as Ozymandias he comes across as quiet, disinterested, and mostly caring or kind. He easily helps out those in his immediate space, creating a sense of humaneness about him. He carries an old satchel around and typically has a book out to easily separate himself from others. As the Grim Jester he's more calculated, vocal, and cold. He wears his distaste for people like a veil, letting it flow here and there obviously. Every move and action taken is carefully thought out in order to inspire fear and plant chaos. Though lately he's found his motivations becoming grandiose. He wants people to understand a degree of his pain of abandonment while also creating a proper place for his newfound hobbies of murder and his fledgling dream of controlling others indefinitely.  

[color=#2eb8b8][b]Relations:[/b][/color] N/A as of now. I'm open to suggestions.
